Queen Nefertiti was more than just a “Great Royal Wife”. She was once one of the most powerful women of Africa as she ruled ancient Egypt alongside her husband, Pharaoh Akhenaten. They were the power couple of their era who brought revolutionary, cultural and religious changes to Egypt. She is also an icon of beauty and her famous bust is a global symbol of feminine beauty and power. Nefertiti Reborn is a tribute to the ancient Queen Nefertiti and is for today’s African woman.

If you are a child of Africa with dreams,

If you are a professional who aspires to get to the top of her career or run her own business,

If you are living in the diaspora but are still very proud of your African heritage,

If you have integrated into your country of residence and you respect diversity,

If you are concerned about the plight of African women and women in Africa,

If you are inspired to lead,

You are Nefertiti Reborn.

Nefertiti Reborn is a new breed woman, who juggles work and family. A global citizen, she is aware of world events and cares about their impact on Africa. She maintains strong links to her country of origin. She’s got great hair, an iPhone or iPad and she can cook a great african meal. She loves wearing ankara and casually teams it up with skinny jeans or a t-shirt and a pair of heels.

She is Afropolitan and she runs her world. She is ready to play her part on the world stage and inspire change. She is a leader and she is shaping Africa’s future.

The beautiful one has come again in the spirit of Nefertiti Reborn and she is here to stay.

Nefertiti Reborn formerly known as Nerfertiti is a community created to promote, foster and inspire leadership qualities in African women who in the spirit of the ancient Queen Nefertiti of Egypt are shaping Africa’s future. We cover leading African women; their challenges and their success stories. We share expert tips and resources and promote related events.

Women leaders are often faced with the double bind. When you are directive and transactional you get labelled too ‘bossy’. If you choose to be collaborative and transformational, then you are a ‘softy’. We can’t win either way. Wherever patriarchy reigns supreme, leadership can be a very frustrating experience for many women. Nefertiti Reborn is here to help you through it all by building a supportive community where we can hold each other’s hands, share resources and organise events, with the hopes of expediting the learning process and making all of us better women and better leaders.

Community

Nefertiti Reborn hopes to build a supportive community where African women can exchange ideas, and information to help them become better leaders and have the confidence and know how to achieve their goals. Together we inspire and connect and help each other grow. Together we find solutions to overcome the problems that are unique to African women as well as those affecting women in general. We support each other to be the best in what we choose to do.

Resources/ Education

We follow African women leaders and learn from them. We provide information to improve our skills including leadership and communication.

Events

We organise networking and learning events, where we can build relationships, form partnerships and develop skills to grow our businesses or advance our careers.
